Give me Trump's US any day of the week as opposed to Russia and its disgraceful policies towards minorities

I think Chechnya functions as Ireland did under British rule - namely as a guinea-pig for political and cultural experiments like persecuting LGBT people. During British rule likewise the Plantations were a testing group for colonising the Americas.

Bad news. RNC has passed a resolution supporting Trumps attempted ban on transgendered people from the military. On the other hand the courts have blocked it so far. The RNC resolution says transgendered people have "a disqualifying psychological and physical" condition.

The RNC's resolution is a boost for Trump's ego as well as an insult to all LGBT people who served their country but otherwise meaningless as a judge will rule whether its allowable or not and this resolution will not affect that deliberation
